Products in Treated Pigments & Powders: Face Powder

YELLOW 6 organic pigment. It is FDA certified, sieve processed to eliminate foreign objects and available in an OTS-treated grade and as a dispersion.

Color Techniques D-9051/I Hydrophobic Mica/ Improved appears as satin white used in blush, eye shadow, eyebrow, eyeliner, face powder, foundation, lip, mascara, nail lacquer.

A methicone-based cosmetic powder surface treatment that has strong hydrophobicity. It enables products with a light/smooth feeling as well as waterproof cosmetics.

An amino acid cosmetic powder surface treatment of vegetable origin. It has good hydrophobicity and lends a rich/lubricating feel to formulations.

Color Techniques D-9126/I Hydrophobic Red Iron Oxide/ Improved appears as blue shade used in blush, eye shadow, eyebrow, eyeliner, face powder, foundation, lip, mascara, nail lacquer.

COLOURSPHERES® are spherical composite materials, in which colorants have been encapsulated into a polymer structure. Colourspheres® offer many advantages in comparison with conventional pigments as their structure is very different, and as their surface characteristics have been modified. The wetting properties of Colourspheres® are excellent due to their small specific surface area. They are hydrophilic in surface properties and very easy to disperse allowing time efficient color shading. Coloursphere WL 10 HB are hydrophilic and 10 microns in size.

An amino acid surface treatment for cosmetic powders that enables tight skin adhesion, good dispersibility in silicone oil and is suitable for use in waterproof O/W formulations.

A triethoxycaprylylsilane-based cosmetic powder surface treatment with excellent dispersibility in various oils and strong hydrophobicity. It enables products with a moist/creamy texture.

Colourmat® products are platelet shaped particles giving good skin adherence. As the particles are platelet shaped and sized between 10-20 microns, Colourmats provide a matte appearance upon application. HB is a Dimethicone treatment, which gives soft feel and hydrophobic surface characteristics. HB treated products have excellent photostability and binding properties. They make powders compactable due to the improved cohesion as well as ease the application of the powder.

Color Techniques D-9111/I Hydrophobic Brown Iron Oxide/ Improved appears as umber shade used in blush, eye shadow, eyebrow, eyeliner, face powder, foundation, lip, mascara, nail lacquer.

Colourmat® products are platelet shaped particles giving good skin adherence. As the particles are platelet shaped and sized between 10-20 microns, Colourmats provide a matte appearance upon application. SILis a Dimethicone treatment, which gives soft feel and hydrophobic characteristics. Dimethicone treatment enhances wetting properties of the particles, and it has excellent photostablility.

Colourmat® products are platelet shaped particles giving good skin adherence. As the particles are platelet shaped and sized between 10-20 microns, Colourmats provide a matte appearance upon application. DF products are treated with Hydrogenated Polyisobutene and Dimethicone, which give a silicone-like softness and hydrophobic surface characteristics. DF treated products have excellent photostability. They are ideal for color care applications.

BLUE 1 organic pigment. It is FDA certified, sieve processed to eliminate foreign objects and available in an OTS-treated grade and as a dispersion.

COLOURSPHERES® are spherical composite materials, in which colorants have been encapsulated into a polymer structure. Colourspheres® offer many advantages in comparison with conventional pigments as their structure is very different, and as their surface characteristics have been modified. The wetting properties of Colourspheres® are excellent due to their small specific surface area. They are hydrophilic in surface properties and very easy to disperse allowing time efficient color shading. Colourspheres WL 10 HB are hydrophilic and 40 microns in size.

Colourmat® products are platelet shaped particles giving good skin adherence. As the particles are platelet shaped and sized between 10-20 microns, Colourmats provide a matte appearance upon application. FLWJ treatment consists of Soy amino acids and Jasmine flower wax. The surface charge is modified so that the FLWJ treated particles create 3D-structures. This makes them ideal for volume compacting as the 3D-structure gives airiness and lightness to powder applications. FLWJ treatment is suitable for natural cosmetics.

Color Techniques D-9124/I Hydrophobic Red Iron Oxide/ Improved appears as yellow shade used in blush, eye shadow, eyebrow, eyeliner, face powder, foundation, lip, mascara, nail lacquer.

Color Techniques D-9131/I Hydrophobic Yellow Iron Oxide, Improved appears as green shade yellow used in blush, eye shadow, eyebrow, eyeliner, face powder, foundation, lip, mascara, nail lacquer.

A dimethicone-based cosmetic powder surface treatment with no hydrogen generation. It enables products with a moist feeling that is less sticky than those treated with silicone oil.

A hydrogenated lecithin-based cosmetic powder surface treatment that is of vegetalable origin. It is ECOCERT certified and enables products with a moist feeling and lipophilic/hydrophobic properties.
